I wonder if the players on both team feel the weirdness of a late Monday afternoon game, like the fans. They are such creatures of habit.

Gotta bring the pain early on D and bring the intensity. The offense needs to play loose and have fun. The teams that have won so far, Houston, KC, GB and Detroit were all flying around, especially 1st half and the offense was aggressive and doing their thing.

Nah, i think they took the back half of the week off. They can use the same gameplan from last time we played Pittsburgh. No worries 😕

There's a sliver of worry. The seventh seeds are Green Bay and Pittsburgh. Two proud organizations with longtime playoff pedigree. And we saw what Green Bay did yesterday as big underdogs so it gives me pause.

Yep, the refs make an announcement or two, but if the fans call their bluff there's really nothing they can do. I mean if it gets crazy, a coach can pull their team off the field I suppose.

Fans will just have to stand in it and crunch the snow down a bit. That's all you can do. Physically impossible to clear that much snow off rows and seats in 24 hours especially with no melting involved. It's Cold!

Just seeing some stadium videos at 1:30.. yep the seating er standing situation today will be unprecedented for sure.

Feeling better the closer we get. I know the Bills still have a sick feeling over their last playoff game vs Cincinnati in the snow. They are so ready to make that right. Also, the 7 seed won yesterday. It feels like it would be so against the logical rationale of football to have the other 7 seed pull the upset. But the Bills still have to play with the intensity light years more than what we saw last January.

They seem to be hitting the lower bowl but there are massive snow drifts covering the seats and aisles in the upper deck. Those fans are so screwed!

Ha, I used to have 2 season tickets in this spot.

Do we know he's inactive?

Some teams just execute better. Miami ran some of the worst screen plays I've ever seen the other night, in the cold...and KC diagnosed them instantly.

I fixed it.

The fans that attend today need to police other fans.. I'm sure some drunk Bills fans could act like morons, but I wouldn't put it past Steelers backers to try and cause trouble. The Refs could threaten a 15 yarder, but technically it's not in the rule book.

That's hilarious.

They should get the airport deicing trucks out there and spray away. Lol. So what that people would be sitting in what could be toxic orange goo. It would be melted for sure.

Yep, lot's of empty seats for no shows today...and many of the people that do attend will be sitting in snow. They just have to be prepared and expect it.

McDermott and the guys can definitely draw lessons from that Dallas game plus they are still seething over the Cincinnati home playoff debacle (also in the snow). They will be ready. The Bengals game is like what happened to Dallas yesterday. The intensity and execution was regular season, They thought they would just show up and win because it was a home game. It was nowhere near the level and preparation needed for a playoff game.

In the passing game, Shakir and Kincaid gonna have good games.

We are getting fortunate for OP and the Southern Erie County. Any Lake effect is supposed to drift north of Buffalo by afternoon. Brisk and cold at 4:30pm, Temperature 17 degrees, winds SW at 13mph. That's as calm as could possibly be expected.

All things considered it sounds like a normal wintry day in WNY. Nothing severe. Any Lake effect is supposed to drift north of Buffalo by afternoon. Brisk and cold at 4:30pm kickoff, 17 degrees, winds SW at 13mph.

The Rams had their time recently. Happy for the Lions but more so their fans. Lots of years of nothing there.

Punting late was certainly a gift to the Lions. Goff is calm and cool and certainly could string together a couple first downs.

Lions *should* be in the NFC Championship game. They will be rooting for a GB upset for sure assuming they take care of business

Rams were inside the red zone plenty. Settled for FGs
